Couldn’t have asked for a better location near all that Cross Lake has to offer. Plenty of sleeping arrangements and exactly as pictured. We rented the boat and comfortably fit the 7 of us. Would definitely stay here again.

Great quintessential "northern Minnesota" cabin vacation. The property was as described and the hosts were great with messages and questions.The kids enjoyed the sandy beach, fishing on the dock and the garage area with games was perfect for an all day rain day.House was clean, well kept, and well stocked with everything we needed.Brewery and Pub less than a block away and walkable.Hope to stay here again.

We had a group of 7 ranging in age from 16-73 and all of us greatly enjoyed our vacation at the "cabin!" The property is extremely easy to get to and very near to a lot of shopping, dining, and attractions should you choose to venture out. We spent the majority of our time at the large dining room table playing games and/or eating, at the smaller table in the game room doing puzzles, or just sitting and visiting on the back deck. The kitchen was well-equipped and part of our group enjoyed having their own space in the smaller guest house. I will mention that there aren't any bathrooms in the basement level, but it wasn't hard to go upstairs when needed. We didn't rent the boat that was available, but the setup looked nice and the bay was pretty calm. We would visit again!

Great cabin for a summer getaway

This property was in great shape, had plenty of room and was in a great location for access to downtown and the lake. Hosts were very communicative and made checking in/out very easy.

Spacious cabin on a quiet bay of Daggett Lake. The cabin is very well-stocked, and the beds are comfortable. It is just a short walk to the brewery when looking at the map. We enjoyed our stay.

Great Location & Amenities!

Our group of 12 really enjoyed our stay! We loved all the amenities - firepit, chairs, cornhole, etc. The kitchen is well-stocked as well. The neighborhood was quiet and super convenient to restaurants and grocery store. The optional boat rental is a HUGE selling point - we loved it!

Jerry, thanks for staying with us. Since your stay (and feedback) we hired 'Dive Guys' to pull the weeds and clear the dock and swimming areas of weeds. It was worse than usual this year but appreciate your feedback so we could get it handled. Hope to have you back!

Amazing location!

This location is perfect! We absolutely loved our stay. We had multiple families and lots of kids so the dock, beach area and lily pad were key. The neighbors on either side were also wonderful and so nice and welcoming. Very easy to get to anywhere you need by either boat or car. Would definitely recommend.

Wonderful Place for a Family Gathering

This is our second year staying at this lovely property. It is spacious and well equipped (all the kitchen equipment you need, games, puzzles, nice grill), with a lovely view. When you arrive you feel like you are coming into a beloved family cabin, which is exactly what we want. We also appreciated how quickly the owners responded to all of our questions as we were planning our trip. Would highly recommend.
